Honest question from someone not in the US: How does the Republican Party square the circle of having a big contingent of their supporters basically hating Jews while also supporting Israel?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Israel moves Jews from America and makes them fight brown people in the middle east. It's perfect in every way for antisemitic folks.

Pushing the return of Jeebus and hasten the Apocalypse

They don't bother trying to square it. Hypocrisy is a given with the cons.

Not the same as government meddling, but Israel also attacked an American ship during the six-day-war and killed 31 people aboard her. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident

We should stop sending them the billions of dollars that we've been sending them every single year for decades and decades.

I am not anti-Semitic because people should be judged by their choices, and nobody can choose their race.

But god damn does the Israeli government make it hard to shut up actual anti-semites when they keep doing this shit

This has been so weird to witness in real time.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I hate myself for being alive and unable to do anything about it. I'm just here witnessing it without any opportunity to change it. We really should have organized years ago before Trump was president so that we could fight against this madness when it eventually came up. We're really fucked.
